Hello! I created my first project page yesterday but when I checked this morning, it appears to have been removed. It was a pretty simple page so I doubt it violated any rules. https://hackaday.io/project/159342-pisolaris

There is… but, it really does not expose the data needed to construct an RSS feed in a meaningful way. In particular, it throws error 500s for seemingly innocent things like getting a list of users sorted by "newest".

Too bad, i always felt that /feed is utterly useless. Who could possibly be interested in every single comment, like or update of any user on HADio? Right now it shows 30 likes of the same person (seemingly on a like spree).

Hi! In my private feed, I would like to see updates to the projects I'm following. Currently though, this feed is flooded with random people liking, commenting or following these projects. It would be nice if there was a way to filter this noise out. That would also make it a lot easier to find new projects to follow!

One more thing, Hackaday black color background and white text contrast hurts my eyes! If I can afford a lawyer, you may get sue. Can you guy liberate us to change color scheme? At least allow green text in black background. It just hurts. I don't want to read my stuffs even I wrote it.

I have noticed an issue with email notifications. The configuration page allows you to select all of the events which cause an email to be sent, but not all events work as expected. A few days ago I received an email notifying me that someone had like a project of mine. Right after they liked the project they left a comment on the project that I didn't notice until a few days later because I was never notified. I noticed the disclaimer "MAXIMUM ONE EMAIL PER HOUR" at the bottom of the settings page. It seems that I was never sent a notification of the comment because an email was sent to notify that a project was liked just moments before.

I understand the need to limit emails to one per hour, but this causes information to be lost if a lot of activity happens at once on your profile. Would it be possible to get a "Notifications" feature at the top of the page? Something like the "Feed" but a stream of likes, comments, and follows. An email of initial activity would be enough to get someone to check the site for more detailed information (allowing the email throttling to remain in place, but providing more granular information for those of us that miss things often).

Not to be vain while being vain ... sigh ... the follow counter on the profile header has a disparity of about 500+ versus the mouseover pop up profile. I figure since it appears as a bug I shd note it. Cheers.

we should get rid of all centralized websites, like hackaday and github - they are all evil, we should go back and host evrything our selfsnow that we found out github wanted to make money, and now has a owner that makes it possible to runt he service for almost forever.

I wonder if it would be possible to add a third category to the public/private projects: unlisted. Such projects could be seen by people when linked to or mentioned directly, but wouldn't appear in the listings.
